Production And Recovery of Biochar for Agricultural Use, Gas Cleaning and Wastewater Treatment

Short Introductive summary

Biochar is a by-product of thermochemical processes such as pyrolysis, torrefaction, or thermal gasification, where conversion takes place in a sub-stoichiometric environment. This biochar as a high carbon content, nutrients with ammonia, high cation exchange capacity, large surface area, and a stable structure. Different raw materials have different properties comparing the biochar, thus presenting different performances.
